Wordle fans thrilled at Googles new search-based animation – The Indian Express

It seems like the world isnt getting enough of Wordle. Recently, Google surprised Wordle fans after it introduced a special animated feature that appears when one searches Wordle.

As one types the word, the search engine shows an animation on the left side of the screen. The animation mimics the Wordle pattern and shows words like GOALIE and COLUMN appear, which finally form into GOOGLE in green colour. The feature can be observed on computer screens as well as phones.

Many Wordle fans are thrilled at this simple yet fun feature. Expressing their delight on discovering the animation, a Twitter user said, When you google wordle the logo changes, this is bringing me so much joy yall dont even know.

Some people have also confused it as a Google doodle but while doodles stay for a day, this search based animated feature has been up for a few days now.

Wordle, which is believed to be the first big trend of 2022, saw an unexpected surge in popularity after it was launched last November by Josh Wardle, a Brooklyn-based software engineer. With Googles new animation, the crossword games viral status has only been strengthened.

On Monday, the netizens expressed their disappointment as they struggled with the particularly difficult Wordle puzzle of the day. The collective frustration of games enthusiasts caused Wordle 219 X to trend.

Earlier this month, the Mumbai Polices Twitter handle used a Wordle-inspired graphic to raise awareness about the impotence of wearing a mask to stop the spread of Covid-19.
